Greg Palast and his team travel to New Orleans to investigate what has happened since Katrina devastated the Gulf Coast.
In Big Easy to Big Empty: The Untold Story of the Drowning of New Orleans, Greg Palast and his team travel to New Orleans to investigate what happened in the year following Katrina's devastation of the Gulf Coast. On his visit, he discovers that the population of New Orleans is miniscule, the reconstruction sparse, suicide rates are climbing, and many have not - nor do they know how to - return to "the city that care forgot." He examines why residents had to leave, what really caused the flood and why they aren't returning.
